Kaiserschmarrn with powdered sugar for dessert

Portions: 4 persons | Preparation time: 15 minutes

Kaiserschmarrn is a dish of Austrian cuisine and one of the most famous desserts. It’s also called the “imperial omelet,” though it’s more of a sweet pancake-like pastry dish. Kaiserschmarrn is soft and airy, has a crispy crust and a fluffy crumb. Fresh berries, juicy slices of fruit, mint leaves, powdered sugar, whipped cream or ice cream – all these additions bring out the flavor of the dessert wonderfully.
